Call them I have seen them provide great customer service and support. But I would highly reccomend replacing it with a TKO bearing. I lost the front bearing in a .21 tuned at 3 gal replaced it with a stock and went again at 5 gal. TKO still going strong at 8 gal. Replace with a TKO you will be glad you did.
